MOVIE REVIEW
I have a thing for Brit Marling. She's young, she's attractive, she's a good actress and she picks her projects well, primarily because she tends to write her own projects (on that note, she's a good writer, too). Her latest movie is The East, a thriller in which she reunites with Sound of My Voice co-writer and director Zal Batmanglij.Read our East, The movie review »
